At Tickets for Good, giving back to healthcare workers isn't something we do once a year. It's fed into what we do every single day, connecting NHS staff, carers, and healthcare workers with free and discounted tickets (+ booking fees) to live events across the UK, because we genuinely believe everyone deserves access to those moments.

‍

‍

But this year, we wanted to do something more. We wanted to make the recognition louder, bring more people into the conversation, and dedicate a full week to celebrating the people who look after all of us.

‍

‍

So we're proud to announce that this June, we're launching our very first Healthcare Appreciation Week - running from 22 to 28 June 2026!

‍

‍

‍

‍

What is Healthcare Appreciation Week?

‍

‍

Healthcare Appreciation Week is a campaign dedicated to celebrating the incredible people working across the healthcare sector. Whether you're a nurse, a doctor, a porter, a cleaner, an administrator, or a volunteer - this week is for you.

‍

‍

It's a moment to say: we see you, we appreciate you, and we want to help you have a brilliant time.

‍

‍

As part of the week, we're encouraging healthcare workers to take some well-deserved time for themselves. A night out with friends, a show you've been putting off, a trip somewhere new with the family - whatever recharging looks like for you, we want to help make it happen.

‍

‍

‍

How does it work?

‍

‍

If you work in healthcare, you can sign up to Tickets for Good and get access to free and discounted tickets to a range of live events. It's straightforward: register, get verified, and start browsing.

‍

‍

The week is open to a wide range of healthcare workers, including:

‍

  • NHS staff (public health, civil service, and arm's length bodies)
  • Retired NHS staff and NHS volunteers
  • Staff from a range of private healthcare organisations including Maria Mallaband Care Group, Cygnet Health, Circle Health Group and others
  • Carers via the Discounts for Carers platform

‍

‍

If that sounds like you, head to our Healthcare Appreciation Week page to find out more or sign up straight away here.

‍

‍

‍

‍

Why now?

‍

‍

Because recognition has to mean something.

‍

‍

Healthcare workers face sustained pressure every day of the year, not just during awareness campaigns. A meaningful gesture isn't a social media post. It's giving someone access to a night that lets them properly switch off.

‍

‍

That's what this week is about, and it's what we're committed to beyond it too!

‍

‍

‍

‍

Want to get involved?

‍

‍

Whether you're a healthcare worker looking to grab some tickets, a ticket partner or venue that wants to donate allocations, or a healthcare employer looking to support your team, there's a way to be part of this.
